However, because of his high cost, this zombie can only be played later in the game, where the plant hero can also use powerful cards to deal with the Deep Sea Gargantuar. He can also be destroyed by Squash or Guacodile, unless Guacodile has been struck by Shrink Ray (but only if the Deep Sea Gargantuar is summoned from Rustbolt's Portal Technician).

Because he has the Amphibious trait, you can also play it on water. Since most Amphibious plants are not as powerful as most non-Amphibious ones, this can survive a few hits in aquatic lanes and damage the plant hero for a lot. Using Vitamin Z or Galvanize on this will make it even stronger and turn it into a huge threat for the plant hero.

Against

This zombie is one of the strongest amphibious zombies, and the only amphibious plants that can defeat him are Guacodile and The Great Zucchini, however, if the zombie hero uses tricks to protect the Deep Sea Gargantuar, the Guacodile can't destroy him. The Squash can destroy any zombie, so it is also a good counter against it. Another strategy is to use the Whipvine to move this zombie if he is in the water.
